With the rise of AGI, the need for Primal eye theory and the understanding of our form of sentience becomes greater than ever if we who are “Born of Nature” are to remain relevant.

Which is, of course, my doing. I’ve been working on a couple of big projects across the summer; time has been, to say the least, at a premium. The real point is: both projects have major implications for the future of this newsletter. I can’t wait to share more on all that in the coming weeks.

In the meantime, though, I’ve still been writing a whole lot. As most of you know, along with Raoul Pal I run The Exponentialist, a community focused on emerging technologies and their economic, social, and human implications.

In this special update, then, I’d like to share a recent essay from The Exponentialist. One that allows you a glimpse of the kind of work I do there. And that articulates an set of idea that are at the heart of my current thinking when it comes to our journey into the decades ahead.
